40th anniversary

Love is what you've been through together.

I found that quote recently and thought it perfect for this picture. My wonderful in-laws, Don and Linda, just celebrated 40 years of marriage. I know they've been through much joy, loss, great blessings, some heartaches and a lot of love in that time. By the time they were 30 years old, all four of their parents had passed away. By the time they were 34, they had 5 children. Now they have 10 children (as they count us in-laws as their own) and 11 grandchildren. Their love is a wonderful example and encouragement for all of us.

I am a wife, mother of four, daughter, sister and friend. I am seeking to grow and learn through the moments and events of my life (both great and small). Any and all growth, change, strength, or shred of wisdom comes from the mercy of God through Jesus. This is my place to share and explore these great and small moments that come together to create my life.

"You are as much serving God in looking after your own children, and training them up in God's fear, and minding the house, and making your household a church for God, as you would be if you had been called to lead an army to battle for the Lord of hosts." Charles Spurgeon
